As owner of 2 Golden Retrievers Jessie [female], and Shadow [male], I had to laugh at your posts.
Hair, yep, it's a fashion accessory, Gold goes with most things doesn't it?
Golden tumbleweeds on the floor......yep, used to that too.
Water slobbering....I have a male Golden who loses half of what he laps up as he walks away from the water bucket. [note I said bucket, not bowl]. With 2 thirsty Goldens a water bowl wouldn't last 2 hours, or else the female would 'dig' in the bowl thus spreading the water all over the floors.
On a hot day my female Golden, Jessie, who turns 7 this year, digs all the water out of the bucket outside and then lays in the water getting it all over her belly. Must be nice and refreshing for her.

5.30am is wake up time according to my goldens too. My man is used to being woken by a wet snout being pushed in his face, or a soft toy being carried around and shoved at him at 5.30am.

Goldens are wonderful dogs........a saying about them is this one...
"In the beginning God created dogs and when he perfected them he made Goldens!"

Give Marly a hug from me please.

I have three cats… I so understand about pet hair!

You might want to consider a robotic vacuum… I have hardwood floors and my latest tech toy is an iRobot Dirt Dog. Sweeps up the hair, the cat litter and is simple to clean. I get to live my life AND have clean floors! Who knew…

You make me laugh Craig, cause it’s all so true!
I have a 52kg Rottie and a 32kg Mastiff x Ridgeback which are inside dogs.

So true about the hair and the stinky rope!

She obviously didn’t recognise you with the helmet on?

You're right Moe - canine cunning.

Not fair.

Yep, where is that?
